Then Yu Xiaogang saw Flender arrive and immediately shouted to him,
"Flender, get me out of here! These two are crazy!"
Hearing this, Flender naturally shouted back,
"Xiao Gang, can you hold on?"
After saying this, Flender still used his Soul Power to seal the meridians in Yu Xiaogang's legs, stopping the bleeding and easing the pain.
Then Zhao Wuji and Flender tried to take Tang San and Yu Xiaogang away.
But how could Tai Yi let them just leave? The next second, Tai Yi immediately unleashed the Domain Skill of his third Soul Skill: Extreme Cold Prairie Fire.
The domain spread out from Tai Yi, covering a thousand-meter radius. Flender and the others, who had been trying to escape, were instantly enveloped by it.
In the very next moment, two opposing attributes—extreme heat and extreme cold—unfolded within the domain. All four of them felt its terrifying power.
Zhao Wuji and Flender fared better. With the support of their Soul Power, they could barely withstand the domain, but even so, they were shivering and sweating.
Their Soul Power was also rapidly draining, spent on resisting the domain's impact.
Those two were still holding on, but the other two were another matter entirely. Tang San, especially, immediately circulated his Mysterious Heaven Skill when struck by the extreme heat and cold, trying to resist the domain.
Yu Xiaogang, on the other hand, was a useless twenty-ninth-level Soul Grandmaster. Under the domain's assault, he was already rolling on the ground, utterly unable to fight back.
The domain enveloped all four, subjecting them to endless torment until they lost their lives.
Just then, Tai Yi looked at Flender and Zhao Wuji, who were still barely holding on. He hadn't originally intended to kill the two of them. If they had taken Shrek Academy and fled, then so be it; Tai Yi wouldn't have pursued the matter.
But Tai Yi hadn't expected them to dare come back—and to try to save the two people he had resolved to kill. So Tai Yi thought, If you want to die, then don't leave here.
The next second, Tai Yi's fourth Soul Ring flashed, and he unleashed his fourth Soul Skill, a Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Skill: Golden Crow Scorching Heaven!
The Golden Crow appeared and unleashed a powerful blaze at Flender and Zhao Wuji, engulfing them both.
Under this Soul Skill, the two who had been barely holding on could no longer withstand the assault. They were struck so hard that they spat blood and suffered severe injuries.
Tai Yi didn't stop. Before Flender and Zhao Wuji could suppress their injuries, he immediately followed up with another move from his third Soul Skill: Golden Crow Flame Devouring Strike!
What happened next left Yu Xiaogang, who had been screaming in agony, speechless. He had watched as his longtime friend Flender and Zhao Wuji, known as the Immovable Wisdom King, were reduced to ashes by a young Soul Master. Not even their bodies were left behind.
Two Soul Saints had died right in front of him.
But Yu Xiaogang had no time to think about anything else, because the next second, he felt the damage from the extreme cold and heat again.
Soon, he was left with only one breath.
Just then, Qian Renxue came to stand before Tai Yi and said,
"Xiao Yi, cancel your Soul Skill. I want to personally kill that hypocrite Yu Xiaogang."
Hearing this, Tai Yi nodded and canceled his domain.
The instant Tai Yi canceled it, Tang San collapsed to the ground, panting.
Only then did Yu Xiaogang and Tang San look up at the two people before them. But the moment they saw Tai Yi's Spirit Rings, both were stunned. They saw two purple rings, followed by a red-and-blue third ring, and three black Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings.
This time, Yu Xiaogang felt no physical pain. What he felt now was a wound to his pride.
Then Yu Xiaogang kept repeating,
"Impossible, impossible! How could anyone have a Thousand-Year Soul Ring as their first Soul Ring? How is that possible? Why isn't it the ideal Soul Ring age configuration I described? Impossible!"
The blow to Yu Xiaogang's pride came from the fact that, for all these years, he had called himself a Martial Soul expert—the person on the Douluo Continent who understood Martial Souls best. He had even published a book on the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls. Now, someone stood before him and overturned every one of his theories.
Yu Xiaogang wanted to ask Tai Yi how he had done it and get him to tell him.
But Qian Renxue wasn't about to let Yu Xiaogang off so easily. The next second, she swung her sword and cut off Tang San's left arm. Yu Xiaogang let out another scream below.
After that, Qian Renxue naturally held nothing back. She followed up with several more attacks, and soon there was a bloody figure on the ground: Yu Xiaogang, reduced to a human stump, with a pool of blood beside him.
Ever since Tai Yi had told Qian Renxue what had happened back then, and Qian Daoliu had confirmed it, Qian Renxue had stopped being as indecisive as she had been in the original story. Now, the only people who could make her soften were the Worship Hall's few elders and Tai Yi.
The next second, Qian Renxue looked at Yu Xiaogang, who was on the verge of death. Gripping the Angel Holy Sword, she brought it down in a single stroke. His head separated from his body, and the hypocrite Yu Xiaogang met his end on the Douluo Continent.
Seeing this, Tai Yi gave Qian Renxue a thumbs-up.
Qian Renxue smiled at Tai Yi and said,
"Xiao Yi, after you told me all those things, I realized how foolish I'd been. So now I'm not going to live for anyone else or to win anyone's approval. I'm going to live the way I want."
Hearing this, Tai Yi smiled. Then his gaze fell on Tang San on the ground.
Tai Yi didn't waste words. To avoid letting trouble grow, he immediately launched an attack at Tang San. Seeing this, Tang San knew Tai Yi was going to kill him, so he endured the pain throughout his body and hurriedly used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to dodge.
But he had little Soul Power left, and he had also been injured in Tai Yi's domain. How could he dodge so easily? The attack struck Tang San before he could fully get out of the way.
The next second, as Tang San let out a scream, all that remained where he had been was his severed left arm.
